My ISP's blocked Reddit because, it claims, our government's instructed them to (along for other sites) for showing bad things (pornography, or something like that if I'm not mistaken).

Huh, what country do you live in? I'm going to take a wild guess that it's... the UK?

Another blocked site worked, so I'll assume Reddit does as well.

David - I remember when my isp started blocking vk.com all I had to do was change the DNS server within my routers settings through the web page 192.168.0.1. Give it a try maybe..

Only reddit accounts that already existed before they started this thing can vote (for obvious reasons).
